We love running into Disney characters!
Whether we spot a rare character in the parks or see familiar friends in new costumes, it makes our day getting to smile and wave at our pals. And today, we found some classic characters at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort!
Now, we’ve seen characters pop up pretty frequently at the resorts — including the Grand Floridian! — but it still makes for a super fun surprise. And on our latest visit, Goofy and Pluto were BACK, hangin’ out with guests!
Today, they were in the lobby, tucked behind the wall near the Garden View Lounge. But we were still able to head on up and say hi! Goofy seemed pretty happy to see us…
…while Pluto struck a pose!
These character pop-ups are random, so there’s no guarantee you’ll spot one on your visit. But keep your eyes peeled — it could really add some extra fun to your day! And stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney news.

When do these characters show up at the Grand Floridian? Would I have a better chance at seeing them at a particular time? Maybe after the crowds have left for the Parks? Thank you!
Az Sunshine, we saw them about mid-morning, but there’s no set schedule, unfortunately.
